20 Best Cdpap Programs In Tucson, AZ (2022 Updated)

I took the 4 week CNA program during the summer and am now certified and working in a hospital. The class was incredibly informative and prepared you tremendously for the exams. I went into my exams incredibly confident and was helped throughout the program with any questions I had. While the program itself was amazing, there were several instances that made getting my certification from the program miserable. My instructor was the sweetest woman but spent most of the time questioning her own knowledge on the topics she was teaching. We had another instructor come in to assist our class and she spent a lot of time talking down to the students for messing up simple steps on topics we were just taught for the first time minutes prior. One student had a breakdown due to being constantly ridiculed by this instructor (management was told and nothing changed) most students avoided her like the plague. The two instructors who taught my class would then bicker with each other on what was correct in front of the entire class, it was extremely unprofessional. I would recommend this program, I just hope they have talked to their team and discuss how to handle conflicts better.Hailey Carpenter

I completed my CNA program with AMTI & would definitely recommend it to anyone that's willing to commit to a few weeks of hard work. The program is fast paced but if you study & stick with it, you will succeed. It definitely feels like the course is geared towards those wanting to go into hospice, long term care, etc. but I always knew I would be going the acute route after graduation – I am now working as a nursing assistant in the ICU at a hospital here in the valley. I don't know what these reviews talking about having their money stolen are all about, it's made very clear from the beginning that if you cannot keep your grades up & be there for lectures/instruction, you will not receive a refund. My only comment for improvement is that all the instructors get on the same page, we left a lot of classes confused because one instructor would tell us one thing & another would tell us otherwise. Overall I'm thankful for AMTI!Poppy Busby

I am so happy I went with my gut & decided to attend AMTI. I just finished my CNA weekend 7 week program & passed my state boards on the first try. I did experience some uncertainty when speaking with student services, I had some questions that I didn't feel were answered properly. I even went down to the campus for more information & I didn't leave confident that this was the right school to choose. I took a risk & went with it anyways. The instructors were absolutely wonderful. Barb E. was my skills instructor & you can tell how much passion she has for nursing and for training future CNA's and nurses. These teachers truly give you so many resources and provide you with every thing you need to pass the program and pass your state boards. I highly recommend taking your CNA training here. I enjoyed every moment of it & I am a tad sad I wont be coming back next weekend. Loved this experience.SB

I have worked with Synergy for over five years. At first, my mother just needed occasional care. In recent years, her life literally depended on their caregivers and management. I live 3000 miles away from Tucson, but have primary concern for mom's care. No matter what her physical or mental state, she always wanted to stay in her home. We had two primary caregivers that knew her well, were aware of her changing moods and expert at "managing" her. Most important, they really cared for her; knew her and, I think, loved her as a person, not a client. I visited and spoke often enough with them to have no doubt that they put mom's needs ahead of their own. I could feel comfortable keeping mom where she wanted to be, so far away, only because I had such complete trust. That trust was proven out not only with the main caregivers, but the Synergy organization as a whole. I knew quite well the owners of Synergy and the Director of the caregivers. They all knew mom well. I knew for certain that if there was a last minute snafu, such as a caregiver calling in ill, they would make sure mom was well cared for. More than once, the owners did a shift themselves when something had to be done in a hurry. And, no matter who I called, I always got straight answers, good or bad, as to what was going on with mom. They were always flexible with my wishes and mom's changing needs. Synergy was the difference between mom living out her life they she wanted to and being put in a home where she would have felt she was in prison; and the difference between me being able to sleep nights, and being worried sick about what was going on in Tucson.alan zagoria

For the past 5 years, my wife and I have been clients of Synergy. In writing this review, we have identified the strong points that characterize our 5 star opinion. First and foremost are the caregivers. A home care company is only as good as its people. I wouldn't trade my supporting caregivers for anyone else on earth. My caregivers are professional, sensitive to our needs, have different ranges of experience, exhibit a high level of trust, and respect their clients. I think another strong attribute of Synergy is its communication between synergy management and its clients. They listen. They get involved in solving issues e.g. staffing. Synergy management is there for us 24/7. From my perspective, the number one benefit of having outstanding caregivers is peace of mind. When I turn the light off at bedtime, it is reassuring to know that I have caregivers that are monitoring our situation/condition and are there to intervene if an emergency situation develops. This "peace of mind" is worth its weight in gold.S Ova

I want to tell you of a wonderful home care business called Synergy Home Care. Synergy is very easy business to work with they are kind and considerate of your feeling always want to help you. My husband has Parkinson's and this was the first time we have had to have help in this way. We knew we needed help and Lisa and Randy the owners jumped right into to help us feel comfortable on getting the information we needed to make a decision, and believe me we had lots of questions. We have had there service since the end of April 2019, and have had 2 caregiver that have brought so much love and understanding and help to us. I don't know where they were able to get such great employees but we are grateful that we have had them. I can tell you from experience that trying to get a long term care company to help you get started in home care isn't easy. Thank heaven for Synergy. I would differently recommend them for your long term care solutions.Wendie Bengson

Adultcare Assistance Homecare is an excellent place to work and provides amazing care to seniors in the valley. I was able to work for the company while finishing my college education and loved working with the seniors. The company had flexible hours to accommodate my busy lifestyle while in school. The managers were patient and very accommodating with my schedule with providing me the hours I needed. They also provided a 24/7 support line that I could call if there was ever a change of condition with my client. If I called them in the middle of the night, they were informative, polite and always optimistically assisted with what I needed. Adultcare Assistance Homecare provided me with paid training to sharpen my skills in caring for seniors. I have been able to continue using these skills in caring for my own mother. I appreciate the experience I had at this company and would recommend their care to anyone and would recommend them as an excellent place to work.Akintunde Adeyemi

Adultcare Assistance Homecare is AWESOME!!! I have worked for this company going on two years, and I dont plan on leaving anytime soon. Adultcare Assistance Homecare is not an ordinary "business" it's more like a "safe house," I feel the warmth and love as soon as I walk through the front door. The front assistant always has a great smile and personality. The management is so organized and has caregiver trainings to increase the caregivers knowledge of what to expect and hands on skills. (Its also fun and they always have snacks) I would trust Adultcare Assistance Homecare with my parents, grandparents, and myself. *they care about your work schedule and are very flexible. They understand you have children, other work, or need extra work.Gloria Allain

As a former home care community outreach manager, I know what professional, reliable care looks and feels like. When my Mom needed support to stay in her home longer, I immediately picked up the phone and called Adultcare Assistance. Having known the owner for a number of years and her standards, Adultcare Assistance was my first and only choice in the Sun City area. As expected, the staff was responsive, compassionate, and the on-boarding was a breeze. I recently visited my Mom to meet and observe the caregiver. I found her to be kind, a hard worker, a great listener, and open to learning my Mom's routines and preferences. I highly recommend Adult Care Assistance!Terri

First and foremost, I would like to thank Tina and the wonderful staff at Senior Home Care of Tucson for making my time there as an employee wonderful! During my time as an employee, I was treated with the upmost respect and always felt like I was part of a family. This was extremely important when the pandemic first happened, having the family orientated relationship allowed me to be able to communicate my needs and SHC did their best to accommodate me. Aside from how well they treated staff, I also loved the quality of care they provided for caring for those in need. Tina does an excellent job in providing caregivers with the proper training, resources, and tools to provide quality care when caring for someone's loved one. The quality of care speaks volume to the company and its mission statement. Tina and staff at Senior Home Care of Tucson goes above and beyond in not only providing quality service but also taking care off staff. Often time as a caregiver, we are not providing that same quality of care to ourselves. I would without a doubt refer Tina's company for either care or employment. Not only was working for the company flexible but they also accommodated my academic schedule as a student of the University of Arizona but also as a part service member of the military. Those two aspect of my life can be a handful to juggle but at SHC they did an outstanding job with working with to ensure I meet my hours while also serving this country. Throughout my time spent at SHC was amazing that words can't even describe and with the knowledge, training, and resources provided I was able to further my education and pursue a career in healthcare. Tina has provided me with experience that I use everyday when caring for others that I personally don't think I could've received anywhere else. Tina is an extremely hardworking in making sure the clients needs are meet but also stuff. Through her work ethic it shows how much she cares, value, and respects everyone that's a part of the company. I am writing this review to praise and acknowledge all the hard work that each staff has contributed to the company. If you're seeking care or employment I really hope this review helps you in making a decision and please make no mistake if you choose SHC you will not regret it! Senior Home Care of Tucson is the best in providing excellent service and quality of care in Tucson!Raven Stephenson

When you want the best senior home care for your loved one, I suggest you look no further than Senior Home Care of Tucson. When my mother experienced a life-changing injury and needed in-home care I initially worked with two other companies in Tucson during 2016 and 2017. Neither of these companies provided satisfactory caregivers and there were many problems that arose. These situations were a direct reflection on the owners of the company and what was lacking in how they ran their companies. But then I found Senior Home Care of Tucson and in October 2017 everything changed for the better. I’m grateful to the owner, Tina Gillette, who works tirelessly to satisfy her clients and the family members involved in their care. Not only does Tina understand how best to meet the needs of seniors, but she is kind, compassionate, professional, and has a shared policy of ethics with her caregivers and seniors to keep seniors safe. Senior Home Care of Tucson works to find a good fit between seniors and caregivers, and has exceeded my expectations in providing kind, conscientious, and truly caring caregivers. Tina and her office staff, Joanne and Karen, have all proven that they are committed to helping best meet the needs of my parents. As I live far away, I take comfort that an exceptional caregiver with Senior Home Care of Tucson is providing assistance to my parents each week. Recently the new caregiver rearranged her schedule in order to provide more hours of help to my parents. She went out of her way to accommodate our request and I’m grateful as are my parents. You will find no other company, owner, office staff, and caregivers who are more willing and able to satisfy the needs of your loved ones.J. D.

For almost ten years now, Tina Gillette and her employees at Senior Home Care of Tucson have made it possible for my 90+ year old parents to remain comfortably and safely in their beloved Oro Valley home. Without Senior Home Care we would have long ago been forced to move mom and dad into assisted living or skilled nursing facilities closer to us so that we could personally monitor their care. This would have been heartbreaking to them. With Tina and her first-class staff we never worry. We get frequent detailed daily nursing notes telling us exactly what services have been performed and exactly how mom and dad are doing. We couldn't be better informed if we saw them every day ourselves. And this has been going on for years. Prior to having the good fortune to contract with Tina and Senior Home Care we employed several other home care services and none of them came close. Senior Home Care's rates are reasonable and billing is transparent and detailed. The staff is obviously well-treated and turnover rate is very low ensuring staff who know our parents well and who are known and loved by them. I have never encountered or even heard of a senior home care agency that comes close to what we've experienced with Senior Home Care of Tucson consistently now for a decade. Our hearts will always be grateful to Tina Gillette and her wonderful employees.ReedandChris Elliott

Musfiqur Amar Rahman helped my in laws get started with the program. Although they changed their minds, great customer service! A very amicable man, and very transparent with all the details.Raimondo Maria Graziano Papadouris

Musfiqur Amar Rahman was Excellent representation of this company. He was extremely informative and made sure I comprehend what was being referred to me. I appreciate his service. Thank youKevin “ChaseN Magikk Bands” Ramlall

I must say that Amar was absolutely great. He made me feel comfortable and answered all my questions. I would recommend him 100%. Great experience.Lorena De La Cruz

My experience with Health Aide Inc has been tremendously positive. I am in a situation of having to take care of my sister who is developmentally disabled. I felt overwhelmed with the responsibility of taking care of my sister physically and financially, and not being able to go to work because my sister needs 24 hour care. And also the stress of living in NYC, a very expensive city. Health Aide Inc touched my heart with their professionalism, excellent communication and effectiveness. Health Aide Inc helped me every step of the way to help my sister and I to get into CDPAP program. All of the stress that I felt because of the large responsibility of caring for my sister was exchanged for a wonderful, calm confidence that everything was going to work out well. If there were 100 stars, I would give Health Aid Inc. 100 stars.Mel Lynn

I had a wonderful experience with Health Aide. From the first meeting they were attentive, thorough, and responsive to our needs. They took into account all the unique factors that would help my father have the best care and found the perfect persons to aid him. This is a challenge because my dad is not American and has some cultural reservations about being cared for. Luckily, Corewood eased all his worries, and he has since looked forward to visits from the caregiver! Such individualized attention is rare in today's health landscape. I really appreciate all the stress they relieved from our family, and it's been a joy to seem my dad feel more independent and confident. I can't recommend Health Aide enough.Clinton Romero

Health Aide help my elderly grandmother find an agency where she was able to set her own schedule for the hours that she got aprove for that best work for her without the constant harrassment of her prior agency on a daily basis. Now my grandmother can go about her day with out worries. They also have an excellent customer service, quick response and give you correct and accurate information from the start. Highly recommend.Isa Alcantara

Beware, run don’t walk away from them. My mother was assaulted by a home health aide this Summer. After being given the run around, we filed a complaint with them and their alleged investigation concluded that it’s my mother’s word against the lies of the aide. I regret not reporting this to police. Another aide told my mother that “she’s old and should just sit down and be quiet.” A non-English speaking aide was sent to us once, and we had to turn her away as we did not speak her language. Mind you, English is our language. Left message for agency and no one got back to us. We went two days without an aide. Some aides are late, by up to an hour, and still leaves without putting in their full amount of work hours for the day. Administrative staff (coordinators) are curt and often don’t return calls. This is bad business.web of gold

Being a f Harbor Care client has been a great experience. Everyone who works there has been so wonderful, helpful, and compassionate. Alexis, HR Manager runs an excellent department. They take care of all the needs of their patients and always make sure that the proper care is taken to ensure the best interest of their clients. They cater to all needs necessary. I would recommend Harbor Care agency to anyone who is in need of a caregiver. I fully trust their agency in taking care of my loved ones.Elizabeth Alba

I was looking for a long-term agency to provide home health aide for my mother in-law thank God I found Harbor Care. Staff are fabulous, professional, competent and always follow up on the case never too busy to listen and help. Harbor Care Home Health Aides are very compassionate, kind, patience, good attendance and caring. They are well trained. I am highly recommending Harbor Care agency to any family who need an agency Home care to provide care to their love one.Cienette Ulysse

While I have only been working for your company for a short time, I would say your answering service needs work. I just tried calling a few minutes ago to speak to the coordinator of my patient and was given a hard time even though I gave the extension for the person whom I wanted to speak too. I also called there to let my coordinator know I was taking a day off. I was never transferred over to speak to the coordinator to let him know and your answering representative kept answering the phone even after I put in my extintion. However I did leave a message but my coordinator never received it. Instead of your answering service asking so many questions as to what it's in regards too or what my phone number is I feel that unless I am asking person on the other line to take a message, they have no business asking me so many questions when I wanted to speak to the coordinator directly about a patient.Laila Muhammad

Musfiqur Amar Rahman was extremely helpful in assisting me in setting up home health care for my sister. He is always available by phone and immediately responds to my calls. He is both knowledgeable and patient. Please consider him for accolades. He is so qualified because of his friendly demeanor. I remain a very happy and satisfied customer.Marcia Coogan

I am so glad I reached out to this company. I was so confused on how, where or even when to get started on my parents long term home care. Amar was helpful and put my mind and nerves at ease. He took care of every single thing from the beginning. He was also knowledgeable of the plans and which one I should choose for better care. Thank youNatalie Edwards

Signed up my grandmother for CDPAP services through Horizon. I must say they were really helpful, from the girl in intake to basically everything utill approval. And I just got my first paycheck from Horizon for being the aide, which makes it even better. Great agency, great customer service! Highly Recommend!Erica Sadi

I would give it more stars if there is more . Signed up my mother with Horizon for the CDPAP program , it was an easy and quick process. less than a month later i was already receiving my Horizon paycheck for taking care of my mother. Thank you Horizon! Wish i knew about you a year ago. Star Agency!Soli Rodriguez

It's been like pulling teeth trying to get the paperwork completed for my dad's CDPAP helper. I now have blank copies of all the forms and just assume I will have to handle all the faxing back and forth to complete the hiring process. Don't count on them to follow up on Anything!Laura Cullen

Since we hired Home Care Assistance of Tucson my life has changed dramatically. I’ve been carrying the entire load of caregiving for my wife Mary Anne for the last eight years. I had finally gotten to the point where I felt defeated physically and emotionally. I called and told them I needed help but was unsure of what I needed to do. Katie came and sat down with me the same day I made my call. We discussed my needs and how they would be able to help me. It’s been two weeks now since they started and Racksand and Mona have totally changed my life for the better. Mary Anne has totally fallen in love with them and looks forward to seeing them each day. My stress has pretty much disappeared and when I leave the house to get groceries or meet a friend for lunch I never have to worry about what’s happening with my wife because I know she happy and getting the best care available. Thank you all for saving my sanity. Jerry Johnson.Jerry Johnson

When my father died it was difficult, but the team was supportive and allowed for privacy to handle our important family matters. It is an understatement to say this group of amazing people are INCREDIBLE. Home Care Assistance helped with my parents with living, eating, sleeping, and getting ready every day. They help them mentally and spiritually. Everybody was amazing, because Patricia hand selected the caregivers that she brought into our home. Each caregiver was an advocate for my mom and dad. They helped my parents and my siblings when times were difficult. There was such ease of mind knowing that Patricia and Mark were here for us, especially because my siblings and I were out of town. If there was an incident, they contacted us immediately and were already solving the issue. There were little moments of dealing with end of life where Home Care Assistance was emotionally and physically essential.Debbie Brozovsky

I have personally had an excellent experience working with this company. I am a retired RN who now requires assistance with ‘activities of daily living’. I know what ‘excellent care’ is, and I recognize it when I see it. That is what Homecare Assistance of Tucson has provided for me. My caregiver recognizes what needs to be done before I even ask her to help me with something. She also encourages me to do what I safely can do for myself, maintaining my strength, abilities, and dignity. My caregiver is also an excellent companion, demonstrating caring concern at all times. I highly recommend this company to anyone who requires outside assistance with non-medical home care and companionship for themselves or their loved ones.ElizabethA Fogel

I have been on a leave of absence for two years caring for Mum from my part time job. (Retired in 2018) Heard of Freedom Care recently and the staff could not have been more helpful in setting us up in the program. They do most of the paper work, do you really need more stress? They walk you through the process. I think it is an excellent program and would recommend it. Mum is home with us, that is a blessing. Thank you Freedom Care.Marc Petrillo

Freedom Care has relieved an enormous fount of anxiety as to my care and treatment as an elder person in my community by providing a caregiver who is truly committed to my health and welfare. My caseworker at Aetna also has demonstrated an ability to provide additional assistance in health related issues outside the home. I've not enjoyed this degree of help prior to my experience with Freedom Care!Valerie Zeller

You can never get anyone on the phone. Their app doesn’t work properly .I I work crazy hours for my consumer and they had the nerve to not pay me. I work for my consumer not Freedomcare. Not fair Medicaid paid you.You need to pay me. I will not recommend anyone to use this companyTyais

I have appreciated the classes I have gone through and have learned hands on and to see the importance of how I would want to be treated physically and compassionately. Thanks Home Instead for a solid foundation and the opportunity and time to learn and get better at what I do. I know I have affected the lives of many individuals and families. There are still good deeds to be done and kindness to be shown in this world. Pass it on, pass it on.Patricia Graff

I feel truly blessed to be apart of a company that not only values their clients, but they value their employees as well! Nealy and Tom go the extra mile to ensure every one of our needs are met and that our clients are taken care of as if they are our own family members. That level of excellence is hard to match and I am proud to be on the Home Instead team!Jordan Scupin

FreedomCare has its pros and cons. I love the fact that I’m able to care for my mom but there are other companies that offer the same services with higher pay. I have been with the company a little over a month now and am still trying to setup direct deposit although I sent all the proper information. I was also offered classes at intake so I can learn how to better care for my patients and every time I inquire about the classes I get a run around or simply no response. I’ve tried reaching my assigned coordinator but am always unsuccessful. Schedule change is a hassle being that we can never get someone on the phone to assist. The staff and polite but not very helpful. Overall freedomcare provides opportunities they help you care for a loved one and refer other clients who are in need of care.Lydia Aybar

By far THE WORSE CDPAP PROGRAM EVER! As a patient of Freedomcare they hard extremely hard to get in contact with when I need to express my concerns and needs. My home health aide couldn’t get the help she needed with her timesheets, YES I SAID TIMESHEET(s) not one but many of them that Freedomcare refused to help with which resulted in missed paychecks. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME ON FREEDOMCARE!Courtney Santiago

I've had a great experience with freedom care thus far, they made it easy to join the freedom care team and has allow me to take care of both my Mother and Mother-Inlaw. Whenever I have a question or need some help a Coordinator is always available.Cory Hardy

Fired them before they were even hired! It took 10 phone calls to finally get a nurse assessment scheduled at my convenience (not theirs – they don't know the meaning of an emergency) and then, 1 1/2 weeks after initial contact, the nurse never showed up! This was all due to Cynthia the scheduler who contradicted (lied) what I had been originally told prior about shift length and availability.Per Cynthia, her caregivers, all of them apparently, refuse to work the usual 4-6 hour shifts. Instead, she claimed they would only work 10 hour shifts per day, period. This, I believe, was an attempt to financially abuse my 85 year old mother who would be paying for my care. Cynthia, also was quick to state that due to my neurological issues, I would be upcharged to the highest hourly rate. When I finally spoke to a nurse, Barb, she stated that she had never been advised of this policy of only scheduling 10 hour shifts and was surprised that Cynthia had claimed such. Cynthia was incredibly rude and condescending towards me – a beloved mother and daughter, a former highly respected college professor, a human being, for goodness sakes (!) – at a time when my prognosis is very poor and I desperately need assistance. When one is very ill and in need of timely care, it is highly stressful to attempt to self-advocate with rude and greedy individuals like Cynthia who clearly do not belong in the business of home health care! She even accused me of lying after I spoke to Barb to which I had to explain to her like a child or an unruly college student that we are not playing the game of "telephone" and that she should not accuse me of lying based on a conversation between me and someone else. I know now that this angered Cynthia and she cancelled the nurse's visit out of spite. My experience with Catalina In Home Services is a sad commentary on the state of home health care in Pima County. I have been stolen from, and physically abused by other similar agencies. My advice to whomever is reading this is to never try to self advocate but have a trusted family member deal with these agencies. And my advice to Cynthia is to find more appropriate employment such as working for a used car lot where greed and dishonesty are highly valued traits.J M

This is a little long and for that I apologize. I have never made a comment in my life about anyone, positive or negative but I felt this needed to be said. I am an RN of many years and thus require high quality of care for my patients, family, as well as for myself (if the time came I ever needed care which until this point, I had not.) I am a new widow ( thus alone) and I was going to be having surgery. I did not want to lean on my dear friends to take care of me post op being rather independent in my nature. My surgeon recommended Catalina in Home Services. I felt I would need care post op through the night and into the next morning. Thus the care was going to end at 10:AM the day after surgery however, it became very apparent I was going to require care for at least another day or two. They efficiently rearranged schedules basically the last minute (not an easy task) and found me the care workers I would need. It was done smoothly and for me, it was non stressful. Important. I ended up using four different caregivers…each with different personalities (obviously) and approaches to their care. They always arrived exactly on time, some in the pouring rain. This is the very important part. I could never have asked for more professional, kind, sympathetic, efficient, gentle care than what they provided for me. Those are the gifts they brought to me when they walked through the front door. I was very sick initially and their quiet presence allowed me to remain calm and relaxed so I could slowly recover. I cannot thank those caregivers or the company enough. The quality of care they provided was outstanding and I would recommend or use them again in a heartbeat. I thank them with all my heart. Respectfully/Gratefully… DebbieDebbie Greene

As a former client of Catalina In-Home Services, I did not hesitate to contact them when my husband became too weak for me to handle on my own. At the time he required 24-hour care, and Catalina was quick to respond to our needs. About a week later, we got the news that my husband was in acute renal failure, and he opted for home-hospice care. Catalina stayed with us through the transition which was seamless, due to their help and previous knowledge of the hospice we selected. We continued to have Catalina 24-hour care for the duration of home hospice and eventually, in-hospice care. All of Catalina's caregivers were professional, competent, and personable. Communication with Catalina personnel concerning questions, changes in the schedule, special needs, etc. was easy and effective. Their nurse was always available on-call to answer caregiver questions or respond to my concerns. Their attention to every detail made it possible for me to get some needed rest without worrying about the quality of my husband's care. Caregivers were willing to take on whatever tasks needed to be done and were very good at seeing what was needed and going ahead and doing it. In summary, I would recommend Catalina In-Home Services without reservation. They provide several types of in-home care and can answer questions you may have in deciding on the level/type of service you need. At first, it may seem a bit expensive to have in-home care, but the quality of care and peace of mind it offers can be invaluable.LAW5030 boi

I recently started with FreedomCare being the paid caregiver for my mom. I've been doing the work all along so already had a good amount of knowledge on caregiving. I contacted them many months ago while I was considering the CDPAS program and the team was very helpful and responsive. When I decided to come on board they were very patient and supportive every step of the way. Really glad we joined FreedomCare. My only regret is not coming on board sooner. Of course there is an enrollment process in the beginning but they really help you through it..not complicated at all. Recommended!E H

Use a different company. Freedom care has coordinators that get paid without doing their job. Your paycheck is always missing days and no one cares. You work a whole week. Clock in and out. Their system doesn’t register half of them and you don’t get paid until the following week. Where you now have to send a timesheet with the days missing , coordinators , supervisors don’t do anything. I’m searching for a different company. If you want to get paid , this is not the one for you.Liz Montanez

Freedom care has been a life saver. They have been right there and always ready to assist if we had a problem with paperwork or a n application. Everyone has been wonderful so far it is quite a lengthy process but worth it. You won't get rich but it helps so I can stay home to take care of my loved one so I don't have to go back out into this risky health care world right now. Freedom care has been great so far.lucille kimble

Usually when have to work with agencies regarding health care and assistance it is not a pleasant prospect. Nothing could be further from the truth with DG. They have been professional, helpful, knowledgeable and kind. Superlatives do not do justice to the service and assistance they have provided. Always available, quick to return inquiries or information when needed. Certainly have made the transition to the extended care my mother needs much smoother and simpler. Grateful for the helpful team at DGMichael Gutierrez

I have been a devoted guardian for over a year now and this is the best place to work! Staff is so genuine and welcoming. when I first started out I didn’t know much, but they actually train their employees to do their best and are involved with helping you grow as a caregiver. Their clients are some of the sweetest people I have ever met and I enjoy caring for them. Great job Devoted Guardians, you help your employees shine and I love being part of the team.C J

Devoted Guardians seems to be better than the other agencies we’ve used. Their employee Ricardo couldn’t be more appreciated. He goes above and beyond and has always helped me and my family with whatever health care needs we have, the attention to detail provided by Ricardo was impressive and his customer service skills are excellent. He should be receiving 10 stars instead of 5. OUTSTANDING. Thanks again Ricardo for all your hard work.lisa wong

I went to get tested after being exposed and showing symptoms of covid. I was tested 7 days ago and still have not gotten my test results. I also went to be tested with 2 other members of my family who also have not gotten their results. Every time I reach out to this company whoever controls the WhatsApp messaging service seems to not care at all about me needing to know what my results are for my job and brushes me off. I’ve tried reaching out to the lab myself and can’t get any answers there either. At this point I am ready to go to an overcrowded urgent care to be tested. I will never go here again and will never recommend to anyone.Mulazia Woods

My 89 year old mother is a recent client of Rockaway Home Care. I wanted to commend your agency for their wonderful employees. Everyone that I’ve spoken with has been courteous and efficient.A high level of professionalism has been manifest and people must really like and value their positions. I’d particularly like to compliment Henrico , our coordinator. It’s a pleasure to deal with him. He’s smart, caring, responsive and has excellent communication skills.He really “ gets it!” Thank you to all of you. Keep up the good work!susan young

For work I am required to attend various trainings and classes. I appreciate coming to SAFS because trainer Ron Berry is a fantastic teacher and comedian. The environment is clean and friendly. The information is thorough and applicable.Jessica Kurowski Giokaris

Caring local nonprofit. Great training staff. Ron Berry is one of the best in Tucson and many agencies send their staff to SAFS for training due to his knowledge and compassion.Craig Peterson

9/12/2019 1/2 Star. Bayada sent a lady named Mary to interview us and she smelled of alcohol and smoke. I don't like having these kind of people around my home. She was constantly on her phone as I think she was recording our meeting. I recommend staying away from Bayada. Over Priced and Unskilled. 9/12/2019 Continue reading, as I sent several emails days after to resolve issues with Bayada( at their request)and nurse Mary Burgess with recorded meeting I still get no reply. No Professionalism or Intrigitiy found here. Now 9/14 still haven't heard back from Bayada or nurse Mary Burgess who tapped clients meeting. What happened to client confiantionallity. No respect for others. STAY AWAY FROM BAYADA!! As of 9/18/19 Bayada never returned any calls or messages and seems that the nurse changed phone number. I guess their moto is " if we ignore it, it will go away"Fred Baxter

Have heard many horror stories from family and friends. Nothing like having a company send someone stoned to take care of your family. The girl being high was bad enough, but she was the most unprofessional looking girl I had ever seen. Apparently the company doesn't bother to drug test their employees. Their standards are low as far as who they will hire and send to your home. Terrible experiences with who they did send except one employee. Finally had enough and found another company. Wouldn't recommend them to even care for my pets. Shady company.Matt P (Jaetras)

I've been with Bayada going on 4 years now I can honestly say it's one of the best agencies to work for. Knowing that I can call the office and get a friendly helpful voice everytime Lisa, Ronnie, Celina, Kevin and Kara are my favorite people like many other office stuff. All the clients I've worked for are always very happy with the service myself and other caregivers provide and I make sure they know if they have questions or concerns to call the office and our lovely stuff well be more then happy to helpVictoria Soto

I had a medical procedure scheduled where I needed a ride there and back. My wife does not drive any more. I had advertisements from several companies but the email from Ed Sommer at Senior Helpers – East Tucson caught my eye. I called and spoke with Nicole and she was able to schedule a Senior Helper to drive my wife and me to my appointment, (at 5:30 AM), stay with my wife during my procedure in the hospital, and drive us home after I revived from the procedure (about 9:45 AM). It turned out that our Senior Helper was Ed Sommer, the owner of Senior Helpers of East Tucson, and Ed was very compassionate and helpful. He made sure my wife was informed and comfortable in the waiting room, and drove us back home. Ed is a careful driver, and he took very good care of us during the whole encounter. I highly recommend Senior Helpers – East Tucson AZ for your needs.Robert Baker

I’ve worked at Senior Helpers for roughly 8 mos and have no complaints. I’ve found the staff and owner to be helpful, flexible and supportive. My questions have consistently been answered in a timely manner. They have always worked hard to quickly resolve any issues I might have w/regards to scheduling, clientele or payroll. I appreciate that they offer additional training (computer) if you want to learn more about Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, dementia, etc. The pay seems to be competitive, taking into account Caregiving is a low wage job everywhere. If you’re interested in caregiving I encourage you to check out Senior Helpers on the east side.Jen McDonald

I needed short term assistance for my mom, I called Senior Helpers and arranged an appointment. Nicole came over and went over the options we had. Everything was explained very well and she was eager to answer all of our questions. The sign up was easy and explained in detail. Senior Helpers arrived exactly on time, the personnel were professional and kind. They were very helpful and eager to do what they were asked to do, from cleaning or meals. I also appreciated how Senior Helpers helped with my mom's beloved pet. If I ever need help with elder care, I would call Senior Helpers right awayoldbigjake
